Hi Frank,

 thanks for writing and for your interest.    I just wrote to Luis and in it I think I have answered some of your questions.

Yes and yes.

Yes, I am looking for exactly this, I also have an f1 “new version" Noctilux which I love, and use a lot.

I totally agree Frank, a real joy, both with the A7,  also with my new Sony A9.

I would love to hear about your experience here.

If,  I get the 0.95 I may have to part with my f1 Noctilux, to pay for the new one. We will see.

I just used the f1 Noctilux on the Sony A9 this morning, and I loved it. It got me thinking.
